Kids and Divorce in Illinois

Don’t expose them to any breakdowns Two of the most common emotions associated with divorce are  anxiety  and  depression . There is just so much  emotional turmoil to overcome  that it is impossible not to end  up a little stressed and sad. It is critical to your well-being to avoid bottling up these emotions. That is one of the most  self-destructive habits  you can develop during this challenging time. However, it is important that you find appropriate outlets to vent about those feelings. Reach out to family members and close friends. It is certainly worth looking into  seeing a therapist  to help you sort through what you are experiencing. Do not,  under any circumstances, use your children as a sounding board. This is already a heartbreaking process for them, and they should not be expected to talk you through your struggles.

Illinois Child Support Information

What is considered income?  Statutory child support is based on gross income from all sources. This includes, but is not limited to: employment income, rental income, and other sources of income such as disability income.  There are exceptions, however, such as any public aid assistance or child support received for the benefit of another child.
